INTP


This guy is called frezned. Well, actually, he's called Tom McLean, but on the Internet he's frezned. Why? I don't know. Before I started watching his videos I thought his name was Ned. It's not. He could have at least called himself freztom or something. He's just confusing everyone.
Anyway.
He is Australian, and you don't really have to watch the video to understand this post but you should watch the video anyway because frezned is HILARIOUS. Almost as hilarious as me.***
Anyway, the test he is talking about is here. There you go, just click on the word 'here'. Nicely done. You've grown up so much. I'm so proud of your clicking abilities. (Psst! I'm really not.)
As you can tell from the title, I am an INTP, which means "Introverted (I)Ntuitive Thinking Perceiving" and sorry, but I am probably not going to talk about your type (unless you are also an INTP). Because this is my blog, okay?
The description page for an INTP describes me in a very uncomfortable way. I guess it's what I would be were I being honest with myself. Except it says I'm 'familiar with the dark side' and I'm not quite sure what that means. I'm Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader? Or I am prone to doing things that are wrong? I am in touch with the bad things in life? I am slightly self-destructive and can relate to why people do bad things? Hmm...
Nope. I'm pretty sure it means I'm Anakin Skywalker. That would make sense. Yeah.
Some things it says that are sadly true about me: I don't like happy people, I don't think I am weird but others do (I mean, I know I'm weird. It's just that I am even weirder than I think I am. Apparently. Talking to other humans lets me know this is true), not punctual and frequently loses things (*sighs, shakes head sadly*).
Anyway, quite a bit of this is true about me. So I looked up what the polar opposite of an Introverted Intuitive Thinking Perceiving is, and it is an Extroverted Sensing Feeling Judging. And that one makes me sad. Almost nothing on that personality box is true for me.
And the moral of this story is: Um, all I really wanted to do was watch old frezned videos, but instead I wrote a post. So when you want to do something fun, instead do something fun that involves more work than the first fun thing. Yeah. Wait, that's a rubbish moral. Maybe I should stop now.

***Far, far, far more hilarious than me. Also more Australian than me, which makes him better than me in every way. EVERY. WAY. He also makes quantum physics jokes that I don't understand and does fancy computer stuff for fun. This makes him so much better than me that after I finish this post I will cease to exist.

Muse for Today:
This thing. I suppose it's really the opposite of a Muse, because instead of making me think or making me curious, it is WIPING ALL THOUGHT FROM MY HEAD. I keep listening to the Supa Dance Mix over and over and over and over and over and over and over ad infinitum.
LOOK, QUESTA. LOOK AT WHAT YOU'VE DONE. YOU'VE CREATED A MONSTER.

  1. Oh yeah. I've heard of this ENTP/INTP stuff from a friend.
    You're right. Tom McLean is hilarious. I started laughing when he drew the picture on that book. In fact, I laugh now at the mere memory. Partly because I think it was funny, partly because of how much enjoyment he seemed to get out of waggling it around and going "Bleh bleh bleh."
    I got INFP. It suits me. Very much.
    Oh my goodness. It suits me so much it's creepy.
    Except low self confidence. I don't have that.
    'familiar with the darkside', it says. Cool!
    And DID I TELL YOU TO LISTEN TO 'SUPA MUSIC DANCE' AGAIN AND AGAIN? No. I did not. I told you it was weird, and to STOP LISTENING.
    This is a long comment. But there is a lot to comment about.
    PS: Ned suits him more than Tom.

  2. I think I watched that animation again and again for a half-hour.
    It is very, very mind-washing.
    Now excuse me, I have to go watch it again. And again. And again.

  3. WHOA.
    You should be happy, FRAS. Or not. But I just realized - all those characteristics describe Artemis Fowl.
    Well, except for the messy and disorganized bit.
    But anyway - WHOA. I'd be jealous, if only there weren't so many cool INFP. (Like Calvin from 'Calvin & Hobbes'. Yeah, that's right. FEEL THE ENVY.)
